    While much of the focus of bloodborne pathogen protection is focused on the healthcare industry, exposure can occur in many settings outside of health care facilities. Cleaning and maintenance staff should be properly trained in how to protect themselves and others from bloodborne pathogens as well, as should all janitorial services employees. 

    All body fluids and waste should be treated as though it contains pathogens, whether  or not you know the person the fluids are from. A few moments of prevention before cleaning up such waste should be a habit, not a hassle. Prevention should include disposable gloves, googles, face masks and proper OSHA approved cleaning products. All employees should know where these items are and how to properly use them. 

    When your staff is properly trained in bloodborne pathogen protection, they will create habits of safety that reduce their risk of exposure to pathogens even if they aren't routinely exposed to them. By helping your staff be fully trained in how to handle the potential of infection, you not only prevent their health from being at risk, but you also help ensure they cannot expose others. Proper employee training in bloodborne pathogen protection helps protect far more than your employee.

    I’m a windows cleaner and I didn’t know about using vinegar and water would make a great job without the use of dangerous chemicals

         The effects of the many harmful cleaners so easily and readily available are to numerous to list them all. There are so many volatile chemicals in so many cleaners, that it is virtually impossible to find a safe cleaner.

          The effects are terrible, and cause many side effects, including messing up your hormones, irritating lungs, eyes and skin. In addition, many are even known to cause cancer, and even death.

          The effects to not only people and children, but also to pets and the environment have affected the earth's ecology. Some of these chemicals leach into the water and kill marine life, and beneficial bacteria. It has impacted the human race like never before, and we have had such a profound increase in cancers and other diseases due to the chemicals found in our cleaners.

         The benefits of green cleaning is that the products are natural and have no side effects and minimal precautions, if any. There is no long term effects, and can safely be dumped down the drain or toilet or outside with no adverse effects.

          IJCSA offers all the information you need, and provides a directory or certified green cleaners, and certification courses.

    Harmful chemicals are present in common items we tend to use regularly. As current users, we may not see the immediate effects of the products we use but in the long run these chemicals can cause many health issues. We rely on toxic ingredients because we may lack knowledge of options for alternative healthy solutions. This is the number one reason for the need of Green Cleaning.

    A green cleaning program is beneficial because it not only offers a safer cleaning service but it also is an educational tool for consumers that may be unaware of the benefits of green cleaning. Green cleaning focuses on using environmentally-friendly ingredients and chemicals to preserve human health and environmental quality. The use of toxic chemicals is no longer a need because green cleaning provides a healthy alternative. Seeing the increase of the amount of children with asthma and allergies, creates a sense urgency to make better choices in cleaning products. Also, many of the toxic products that were promoted heavily in the past are beginning to show the adverse side effects of using them. In the end, the focus should be on creating a safer environment for our present and our future.

    Through the implementation of a green cleaning service program into Sage Canyon Cleaning, there are many additional benefits that we can offer our customers.  By allowing only green products in our customers’ facilities, their employees’ health will likely improve.  This will reduce sick days, increase productivity, and save on costs.  By letting their employees know that they employ green cleaning services, their employees morale will increase.   Additionally, by letting the public know of their dedication to green cleaning, our customers will be recognized within the community for committing to environmentally friendly practices. 

    Sage Canyon Commercial Cleaning will provide green cleaning services in Phoenix to our ecological conscious and chemically sensitive customers, ensuring that our cleaning services protect our environment and indoor air quality.  We will primarily use Simple Green as our cleaning and disinfectant product, and additionally we will use microfiber cleaning cloths. Microfiber cleaning cloths clean exceptionally well, often with less chemicals, and can be re-used rather than simply disposed of.  All of our staff will be properly trained and certified in green practices through IJCSA.
